Creative Spirit Therapy by Kari Gundersen
Registered Psychotherapist, RTC, RYT
It's not easy to reach out and ask for help. But what I want you to know is that everyone needs somebody to talk to at some point in their lives. It doesn't mean you're weak or sick or less than anyone else. It just helps to have a neutral third party you can say anything to. No matter what's coming up for you now, you can talk to me.

Andrew (Andy) Wilkins
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Clinical Counsellor
Accepting new clients! By considering a therapist, you have already taken a significant step toward becoming the person you wish to be. Something has shifted for you. I can help you build on that initial spark by supporting you in feeling more confident and compassionate about yourself, empowering you to lead a more successful and fulfilling life. You'll be able to live in a way more aligned with your values and bring your closer to achieving your goals and dreams. To assist my clients in that direction, I use a trauma and multiculturally informed approach to understand the contexts that led them to where they are. Please contact me for a free 15 minute consultation to see if we are a good fit.

Erica Beauchamp
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.Ed. R.C.C.
Counselling is akin to a mental gym, where we exercise and strengthen your mind. Often, people are unaware of the patterns and thought processes that perpetuate negative emotions and experiences. My mission is to collaborate with you, empowering you not only to conquer your challenges but also to liberate yourself from self-defeating beliefs. Together, we'll embark on a transformative journey, unlocking your full potential and creating a life of fulfillment and positivity.

Shannon MacGregor
Counsellor/Therapist, RTC, MTC, CLC
My goal as a Transpersonal Therapist, is to help you uncover your true potential and lead a life that is worth celebrating. While we can't change difficult situations of the past, we can work together to better understand and resolve challenges in your life. By applying complementary therapy approaches and techniques, we will unearth long-standing behavior patterns, or negative perceptions, that may be holding you back from experiencing a more fulfilling and meaningful life.

Sexuality & ADhD Solutions
Counsellor/Therapist, Registered Therapist/Certified Coach - RSSW, AAC, CEBC, CAE
Having ADHD/ASD myself, I started my practice in 2013, with the passion to empower those with different brains to learn management skills that work for their specific issues.
Within a few years, I realized there was a big need to understand that ADHD is an executive function malfunction and it does impacting our sexuality. Our struggle with creating and maintaining boundaries, will definitely impact how we make choices throughout our life, including our sexual choices.
Did you know there is a higher rate of sexual issues among people with ADHD? I had to overcome many.
Since then, my passion has becomes stronger with each client who overcomes their blocks and hurts, and sets themself up for success, whatever that meant to them. I am honoured to do this unique work that changes people's lives in major ways.
There is nothing more important than being heard, seen, and supported.
I UNDERSTAND THE ISSUES!

Madison Chen
Counsellor/Therapist, MCP, RCC (Registered Clinical Counsellor)
I believe we all have the innate ability and strength to grow. For some of us, our life circumstances can temporarily stifle our growth and block our path to self-discovery. We can often use a companion during these challenging times, someone who can shine a light on a dark path that is often lonely to travel solo on.
